Café Solé has captured the hearts and palates of locals and visitors lucky enough to discover this culinary gem off the beaten path. By combining his French mastery of sauces with fresh locally caught seafood, John has created a menu unlike any on the island, where every dish is bursting with indescribable flavors. Mutton snapper in pesto and champagne, yellowtail in a beurre blanc of lobster or a rare hog snapper with red pepper zabaglione top a list of nightly specials. As for the classics, the Duck a L'Orange, Rack of Lamb with herb de Province and Lobster Bouillaise are as authentic as you will find this side of Paris. Chef Correa combines the best of both of his worlds, European and Caribbean to win the People's Choice and Best Entree awards at a recent Master Chefs Classic

    Restaurant was a little warm (80 degrees). Food was alright, but would have ordered differently next time. Baked artichoke was almost inedible, the vegetarian pasta needed more flavor with salt and pepper.

    This is a five star restaurant. Food, service, atmosphere, all exceptional. It was so good, we dined here 4 times during our 7 day trip. Try the fire roasted artichoke with breadcrumbs, just note that the plate will burn the hand. The vegetarian stuffed pepper is delicious as well. Oh and literally the best key lime pie we’ve ever had. So good that my non dessert eating wife ordered it for herself. That is a first in 25 years. Do yourselves a favor, make a reservation and try this place.

    Our server Patricia was fantastic. The ambience was wonderful. The issue was the food. We got the caviar service and it wasn't very good. The mushroom soup was great but our scallop and steak entrees were both overcooked. Hopefully it was just an offer night for the chef. We will go back and try again our next visit. Fingers crossed!

    Lovely restaurant with fine service (Max!). Terrific wine list. Our fish was fresh and well-cooked. The sauces on them were delicious without being overpowering: Grouper with romesco & hogfish snapper with a red pepper hollandaise. Love the sides that came with it, small portions of mashed potatoes, mushroom risotto (?), carrots and lima beans. Generous servings. Will be back! Definitely want to try hogfish again.
